  1. Oops, sorry Tech, not meant that way, it's just that Eddie (the member in the link) supplies and fits CC for £90 and has answered (correctly) a multitude of technical questions for me and others. Obviously Briskoda has its fair share of experts who drive better cars as well!
  2. I have -30mm PI springs, which are produced by H&R, and they sit just about perfect. I will be getting AP coil overs on the new whip though. ;o)
  3. I think so, the TSi has the advantage of a HPFP as standard doesn't it?
  4. Going completely OT, whats your average mpg with the Revo software.
  5. Sorry, my bad you need to be a member to view other member profiles. I would join though as the MK5 and Octy 2 are the same platform and the guys on that forum are very knowledgeable.
  6. My Tfsi is running Shark stage 2, and it is fast, the PD140 is absolutely no comparison, I just thought the CR being 170 standard remapped to 200 ish but with 350+ lb/ft would give even a mapped one a run for it's money?
  7. Carl is very clued up regarding who's who in the remap scene. I'm not sure why he switched but he must of had good reason. Which map do you think is awesome, APR or Revo? Incidentally, I was chatting to an APR sales rep yesterday at work, he was enjoying his experience in there demo Golf R running a claimed 370bhp, it certainly looked and sounded like it had that sort of horse power ........
  8. 235/40 will be find on that width wheel, I wouldn't go to a 35 profile though! Make sure you post some pictures whdn it's all done. The ride height quoted for the H&R springs, is that -45/50 from standard height or vRS height?
  9. vRS Carl was running an APR map on the assassin, he has since changed to the 'Go play' Revo software.
  10. That's an interesting view, I am looking to change mind next year and at the moment I can't decide between the CR Tdi or the TSi. Swmbo has a Golf GT with the PD140 engine, standard it was poor, but Shark'd it's very good. By comparison the CR is s far superior engine and with higher power I thought it would be comparable mid range to a standard Tfsi. Apologises for the thread hijack.
  11. Thanks for the advice Mike, I will get one ordered tomorrow!
  12. Morning chaps, I know this has been covered a few times, but it seems I have a dead wiper motor, basically a couple of days ago it just wouldn't work, then it made an effort but stuck midway through a wipe, after a couple of tries it worked again but only for a couple of wipes. After removing the wiper arm it seems to work better? My question is, has anyone had the same symptoms, and was it the motor? I can get a replacement for approx' 70 quid so not a big issue! Thanks in advance -
  13. My recommendation would be to message this guy, he's done loads of conversions for members without any issue!
  14. You lucky ....... I was hoping to do a deal on the black headlights! :'(
  15. My retro fitted CC stopped working, so I stripped the stalk and cleaned the contacts with a contact cleaner, reassembled now working schweet! At OP, there is a guy called Eddie-NL on the MK5Golf GTi forum that supplies and fits for £90, if you can't be ar5ed to get the stalk, fit it then have it coded.
  16. Tragic loss of a young life, thoughts to the family and friends.
  17. It does all make sense and it definitely starts the whole saga (interesting how they have used the artificial human as the cause of all the problem?!). But the original Alien does feature the same ship and the Space Jockey is sitting at the control with his chest burst open, I just think it is a stupid error? And I can't help over thinking anything that I am an absolute geek about!! She's blond??
  18. That is the problem, it is a prequel!! In the original, they find the derelict ship, which is clearly the one which crashes in Prometheus (on LV 223, which in Aliens is called LV 426?!?). While investigating the derelict they find the Space Jockey/Engineer at the controls and they comment on the fact there is a hole in his chest, which looks like something has burst out of it!! Clearly the ending of Prometheus is explaining how the Alien evolved so all that needed to happen was the Engineer (once the Queen facehugger fell off) staggered back to his ship, climb in the control seat and boom out pops Darwin's creation ........ but instead the 'Alien' is born on the escape pod? Not that it's important, but other things like the wreckage of the Prometheus and it's life pod dotted around the derelict which if the Nostromo's crew didn't see, the colonists in Aliens would have found? Despite all this, I loved it!!
  19. ......... any big fans of the Alien(s) franchise want to discuss the epic fook up at the end? And the modest continuity errors contained throughout?
  20. Problem solved, one of the LED's was dying, replaced both with a set I got for swmbo's Golf from HID's Direct.
  21. I like the intervals on a 2-1 ratio with HIIT, but I will give anything a go (within reason ). I did a MMA circuit today and it was an absolute killer .......
